finding trouble (Anteros)
There were a hell of a lot of things that Hebe had missed doing. One of them was partying. The second was shopping. The third was partying again, it deserved two spots! The fourth through probably twentieth spot was men. She missed men. She missed Gods. She wished the way the sounded, smelled, tasted, moved.. so on and so forth. Youth was YOUTH, they mingled, danced, went through the motions, lost themselves, went crazy, fell in love all at the drop of a hat. Hebe needed that. She needed release from the bounds of her latest wedding blues. Stupid husband that was stupid and gah. Thankfully Hercules was pretty much history. She may have held the title but not the ring, not the commitment. Which made things like this way easier. It really didn't matter what Erote she ran into, but her hips kind of guided her right for Anteros' door.

He was probably the prettiest Olympic god beside his brother Eros... And her brother Ares. Not that she was picky, really. Gods were gods. All of them were good looking. She just wanted the kind of company that Anteros could provide. He wasn't just a love God. He wasn't just handsome. He was her friend. More than that, they'd shared more than that over the ages. Anteros understood Hebe's pain.

The first time Hercules had turned a blind eye on the trust she placed on him. The first time he'd went astray. He'd been there. His arms had held her. And around this time of the year. He'd just know. He'd know.

She needed trouble. Excitement. And a pair of arms to keep her balanced.

She knocked on his door trying not to pound on it out of urgency.

Hebe just really. Really. Needed Anteros.

It had been another intense workout for Anteros. Whenever his job got him stressed or depressed or whatever, he had a couple of things he turned to every time-- one was working out, usually punching the heavy bag until it felt like his arms would fall off. His other coping devices were drinking and sex. Physical activity was the healthiest choice, so he tried to make that his goto stress reliever.

Tonights workout had been a killer, and the hot shower had been the perfect topper. He wrapped a towel around his waist as he headed for a post workout snack. His trip for food was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Hi Hebe, what a pleasant surprise," Anteros greeted his friend and Aunt.

It only took a moment for him to realize that something wasn't quite right with the Goddess of Youth. The erote pulled the Goddess into his arms forgetting that he was only clothed in a towel. "What's wrong? Who do I need to beat up?"

"If I tell you to throw Hercules into the Underworld would you, really?" Hebe wondered out loud, betraying her deepest thoughts. "Oh you know. It's that time of the year, all the girls are having summer weddings and since I'm in charge of young brides well.. I.. I just really hate remembering I'm married to Mister Moron." Hebe leaned against him.

She knew he wasn't fully clothed, which was actually just perfect for her. He was still warm from a hot shower, and smelled.. divine. There was nothing better than this. He was strong, he was there for her. He wanted to be there for her.

"The normal yearly, woe is me, my parents are doofus' and married me off to stupid.. dumb.. Ung. I want to go out and have fun and forget all about it and get over my summer slump."

"I'd do anything for you, but you know that," the love avenger replied.

The erote pulled Youth closer. He had seen the Goddess through this in the past, and would again in the future. He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly. He hated to see her hurting and was willing to do anything in his power to make the pain go away.

"So where do you want to go, and what kind of fun were you planning?" Anteros queried. "I'm a bit underdressed at the moment, but that can be remedied. Do I need to have bail money handy, you know what happened the night you were bored..."

Hebe's fingers started to wander down his back and over the smooth warm skin. She could, and had, lost herself for hours just touching him, she'd probably traced every inch of his body once or twice. He never seemed to mind it. He didn't care that she was married or that she was entirely as unfaithful to Herc as he was to her, he'd just started it.

Hell hath no fury..

"I wouldn't mind it one bit if we went out with you dressed like this." Hebe said with a small smile.

"Might want to keep bail money handy, you know me. I like to party and sometimes it ends in untimely arrests. I wasn't even that naked in public.. I had.. body paint on."

"I don't think it was just about the body paint, it may have been how you were dancing," Anteros remarked with a smile as remembered the night in question. "Was that the flavored body paint?"

The erote enjoyed the feel of Hebe's lithe fingers as she massaged his back. He could just stand there for hours, lending his strength to the Goddess, but she needed more than that. She needed to get out and have some fun, there was always time for this later.

"While me going out in just a towel sounds appealing," he purred, "it might be best if I threw something on, at least to start the night. Want to pick out my outfit? Hopefully I have something suitable in my closet or I suppose... Besides you have to decide on our destination and dress code."

Hebe giggled then, her mouth close to his ear so he could hear her perfectly. "Yes, you remember. Cherry flavored, I think you asked me if you could coat me in chocolate to make it even sweeter." Hebe's body pressed up against his in all the right ways. She didn't want him going just yet, but they did need to go.

"More than appealing, delicious." Hebe grinned then without really moving much turned them around and backed him towards his bedroom.

"If you don't have an outfit I like I can get one of my attendants to grab something, although, I'm really digging the towel. We could start a new trend.."

"Oh yes, and you tasted amazing," he recalled as he nibbled her ear.

"While I can see the appeal of the towel," Anteros remarked as Hebe started to rifle through his clothes, "it isn't the most mobil option. It does limit my movements, and there is always the possibility of a wardrobe malfunction, and we don't want our night to end prematurely with indecent exposure charges, or at least make them more worth it."

"So what are you thinking? Beach party? Or something more formal? Or we could just stay in, it's up to you. I know whatever you decide it will be memorable."

"As tempting as staying in is, because it is really really tempting Anteros.." She looked back, that sultry, smokey sort of look she got in her eye right before.. they normally...

"I want to go out. I'm thinking wild party, off the beach but in a huge house. With lot of boys and girls to make do terrible things. Youth does go wild, right? Plenty of drinks, and when we're done making the party fun.. We go and find ourselves a nice cabana and stay in it... for a week." Hebe held up a nice white shirt, squinted for a second.

"Mmm.. classic white, or a dark red.."

"In or out, it doesn't matter to me, but you look like you need to cut loose," the erote remarked. He recognized the look, it was a look that sent shivers of anticipation down his spine.

"I like that idea. It's been a while since I've gone wild myself," Anteros admitted. "Besides a week or two in a cabana is always fun."

"You are a better judge of fashion than I am," he stated as he grabbed the hangers out of Hebe's hand and held them in front of him, giving her a better image.

"White is nice, but red can hide a multitude of sins... and it sounds like there is going to be a lot of sinning going on." The erote laughed. "White or red, looks like you want to choose between the angel or devil... so which do you prefer?"

Hebe put on her best serious thinking face and looked over both. Which would she want. She personally liked both. A guy in a white dress shirt was classic, but as Anteros had helpfully pointed out, Red covered up a lot. And Anteros looked so good in red.

Something he shared with his father.

Hebe smiled wickedly and held out the red shirt.

"This one definitely. I am in no mood for an angel. If I had been, well, I would have been going to the wrong door wouldn't I have been, Anteros?" Hebe smiled at him. She liked it better when he was naughty. Even though they were friends, and sometimes lovers, Hebe liked the chase, she liked to BE chased. And Anteros was good at both.

	The erote tried his best to look angelic, but the wicked glint in his eyes gave him away. "I feel like I should be hurt, but being bad is so much more fun, besides I think you'd have to search far and wide to find an angel, especially here on Olympus." He took the hanger from Hebe and pulled on the red shirt. He turned and posed like a model. "So, will I do?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
